Be Thou My Vision | Best Version | Lyrics

A very old and beautiful Irish hymn that reminds me of many verses from The Holy Bible.

LYRICS:

Be Thou my vision, O
Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to
me, save that Thou Art.

Thou my best thought,
by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping,
Thy presence my light.

Be Thou my Wisdom,
Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee,
Thou with me, Lord;

Thou my great Father,
and I thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling,
and I with Thee one.

Be Thou my battle-shield,
sword for the fight,
Be Thou my dignity,
Thou my delight.

Thou my soul's shelter,
Thou my high tower.
Raise Thou me
heavenward,
O Power of my power.

Riches I heed not,
nor man's empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance,
now and always:

Thou and Thou only,
first in my heart,
High King of heaven,
my Treasure Thou art.

High King of heaven,
after victory won,
May I reach heaven's joys,
O bright heav'ns son!

Heart of my own heart,
whatever befall,
Still be my vision,
O ruler of all.

Be Thou my vision, O
Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to
me, save that Thou art.

Thou my best thought,
by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping,
Thy presence my light.
